im after some double 18'' horn bass bin plans.

.i.e. ev mtl's or cerwin vega sub 218 style,

im gona load them up with PD 186's -im currently running 8 ev t18 with PD 186's and they are monsters!!

Im probably gona use 2 double 18's per side and in some cases 3/4-

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated

they look the business-

but i was really after something alittle bit more versatile-and compact as i will be using them alot and they just look too damn bulky!!-if im going up a flight of stairs-im buggered-

i do alot of shows for around 600-1000 people in banqueting suites and big halls. so need the power of twin loaded cabs but they gota be compact and easy to move-such as the ev's and cerwin's (1 man job) , if any1 can get hold of the planz for the ev Mtl's or cerwin Sub218-thatz would be very much appreciated!!

Why not use 2 1850 horns a side[ easier to carry up stairs] and don't forget each 1850 horn uses 1x 18 inch.

As dual 18 inch horn subs are very large and extremely heavy.

Or if you still want to build dual 18 inch horn sub, heres the plans:[it won't be able to go up flights of stairs though].

Find Plaene and click it on there, and it's the 2x 18" DB-B2.

nah not too keen on that design mate, i had 2x 1850 earlier this year i put a fane 18xb driver in there and --woo hoo i saw sum fireworks

so im not too keen on them, as they killed my beloved fane 18xb's  or was it the crown 3600vz at full whack for 5 hours 

im still looking for that double 18'' design, i like the ''pimp'' styling of the ev and cerwins u just see the big f**k off baskets and magnets! and the whole cab is same size as a scoop, but housing 2 18''s

@Insomnia

listen man those selenium double 18s that NEXUS-3 mentioned are awesome there aint nothing like them

ive never heard a better double 18 in my life, i must highly recomend them they do a lot of damage and the bass is 10 out of 10!           trouser flappers at 30 yards

i was over a mile away on a beach when some guy was using 8 double 18s not only could i feel the bass in my chest i could feel it in the floor

hey Guys,

anyone got any pics of the finished Selenium cab?

Try to PM Marjan M he is using Selenium bass cabinets but with 15' Eminence Kappa pro 15 LF.The cabinet for a 18'  drivers  is  few inches biger.

Then why use doubles in the first place? Aren't they all kinda bulky??

Especially if they're true horns designed to do 50hz or lower and not a bandpass hybrid.

Then you shoulda put the right driver in it or used the 186 box instead, thats user error, not the box's fault.

Also the boxes you're talking about (if i'm thinking of the right ones) are not truly horns but micro-scoops or bandpass/manifold hybrids

yes,

the cabs im after are some sort of micro-scoops,  

ive used the Ev Mtl's before - they are effecient enough throughout the hole spectrum but just lack any major power as they are rated at around 800-per cab,

I may try the selenium design after ding some research into it.

cheers

No, you can get some doubles just abit bigger than scoops-but just cost too damn..and not very good value for money when u consider each cab is  800rms

How about this dual BP6 box *ahem*, about as small as they come and 1200wrms

hmmm..there nice!!

how they sound??

They sound good, i've just modelled the PD186 in the box compared to the Beyma LX60 thats in them, heres the plot, the green is the PD with 1200w input power

This looks really good, not sure about the drivers though, what about using the Void 600w 18"? would keep the cost down, and still be a 1200w cab.

the beyma lx60 range are nails, got 4 of the 12's in a pair of dual bp/horn hybrid subs, makes me wanna hear a lab sub for comparrison

would be good fun to knock off a copy of danleys b-deap and bung a pair of them in, i can see why he reakons there is no longer a huge need for 15 & 18 inch drivers. 

if you are set on dual 18's i'd at least try modelling the beyma lx's anyway

I see you're selling them seperate from the drivers.  Why?

I reckon you would be looking at well over £500 for a pair, not including drivers, built out of birch ply to a professional finish.
